I guess 50-50 that Trump gets into the Iran thing. I dont think he wants to but ---in the end - he might accept he's inderectly Israel's bitch like most Americans and their leaders are.
We'll know in a few weeks if we lick Liz Cheney's boots or not.
Iran is threatening retaliation - i hope that isn't activating Sheeple Scout cells in America because this time, you don't have George W Bush arning against bloodlust random revenge.
Tribal America could get a bit more interesting. I'm having a weak moment - not sure if i want that all to happen.

It’s a tempting predicate for invoking the Insurrection Act here at home.
For my part, I have no idea whether Trump gets into it. My guess is that he doesn’t know either.
But the guy who provoked violence in SoCal in order to introduce National Guard and active military on the streets of America will not hesitate to wag the dog as regards Iran.
And the sad thing about it- he doesn’t give a damn about Iran, but he does give a damn about being King of America, and he will use the former as an excuse to insure the latter.
And MOST the MAGA lemmings will cheer him being “tough on Iran”.
But the MAGA coalition is beginning to fray. Things are not hunky dory in MAGA Whoville. Trump sees attacking Iran as a stepping stone to consolidating power here at home, but a prime consequence of attacking Iran will be to discard his campaign promises about “No new wars”, and open up a fissure within his own party.
An old, old story of greed, avarice and stupidity, sowing the seeds of its own destruction.

The riot started BEFORE the Guard showed up. And wag the dog? You *are* aware that the Israelis have the lead on this one, right? They’ve been putting in work for about a week?

The riot started BEFORE the Guard showed up.
The riot (such as it was) was provoked by ICE raids. That was the pretext for sending in the national guard, and that was the plan all along.
And of course Israel took the lead. And they are attempting to drag us into a war. If we are worried about Iran producing nukes, then give Israel the bunkerbusters they’re asking for. But don’t commit US forces. That mess is a sink of quicksand.
And it’s not as if there aren’t warnings flashing.
In a strange echo of the prelude to the Iraq war, we now have TRUMP’s own DNI testifying that there’s no evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon.

I've heard that the 25,000 lb bombs needed to meaningfully destroy Iran's underground facility can only be delivered by B-52s and there's no way to do that without having U.S. pilots flying them.

Minor quibble...the GBU-57 MOP is 30K lbs (14K kilos), and is designed to penetrate ~200 feet.
Technically, the B52 can carry it, but it isn't certified. Only the B2 is certified.
I don't think any other bomber of any other allied nation could carry it, and we don't sell our bombers to anyone. So, yes, it would involve US pilots.

That’s not what a lot of libs are saying. At any rate, it’s interesting that enforcing the law triggers the left into rioting and that they believe riots are a legit form of protest.
And it’s not as if there aren’t warnings flashing.
Made up stories and innuendo from a loser political party bereft of ideas, morals, standards and integrity don’t make for “”warning signs””.

I should have snapped to that fact, but didn’t. So here’s the update:
We’ll drop off the bunker busters and leave them on the tarmac.
How they deliver them to Teheran is Israel’s business.
Israel, like the US, has been hijacked by far right ideology And we shouldn’t be following them down the dark hole of an expanding war.

Interesting that discussion of this new war doesn't bother to mention that it is happening because we had an agreement to limit and monitor Iran's nuclear program,
which even Trump's own aides said was working, and he blew it up because it was negotiated under Obama, and Trump doesn't like Obama because Trump is a birther (racist).

Yeah, don’t care.
Israel doesn’t have to sit there and allow Iran to fire hundreds of ballistic missiles at it all the time. Or allow foreign-backed terrorists to paraglide over the border and violate/carry off their women.
One of the greatest things about Trump being re-elected is that we do t have to put up with the status quo any longer especially when the status quo is really, really stupid.

If you don’t want to be called a fascist, stop being a fascist.
Stop fluttering your eyelids when you see a photo of Kristi Noem dressed up like the Beast of Belsen, standing in front of a cage full of prisoners in a Salvadoran torture prison.
Stop cheering violence perpetrated by the regime, especially when that violence is gratuitous
Stop trying to promote the farthest fringes on the left as representative of “the left”, or “liberalism”
These are all characteristics of fascists.
Stop cheering the arrests/detention of Democratic lawmakers (in other words, stop cheering Trump’s game of physical intimidation) The goal is to beat the opposition into silence. Unfortunately for fascists, that never works; it only breeds more opposition and outrage (see “No Kings” 5 to 10 million people in the streets).
Stop using the fascist playbook, and nobody will call you a fascist. There’s still time to save your soul.
